A sugary voice amidst a tropical-flavoured anthem of poppy hooks, the new single from JP Cooper titled ‘September Song’ is set to be a huge chart topper over the next couple months.
Hailing from Manchester, JP Cooper has spent the past couple years carving his own path with his smooth compelling vocals winning him loyal fans across the UK, with artists Ed Sheeran and Stormzy crediting him, with the latter describing him as “one of the greatest musicians to ever come out of this country”.
With a whirlwind of festival and headline slots over the past year and his stellar collaboration with Jonas Blue on ‘Perfect Strangers’, JP is sure to make a definite name for himself with his debut album still to be released.
JP Cooper‘s new release single under Island Records ‘September Song’ evokes a lush and lively closure to the summer season for the Northern Hemisphere. The compelling vocals layered upon a breezy chorus and soulful grooves conjure up images of dancing along beaches drinking from coconuts.
Opening with the generic tropical sound which seems to be popular right now, JP’s sugar vocals chime in to a piano driven track. When the chorus swifts in with the lines “You were my September song, summer lasted too long”, listeners are immediately transferred to a tropical paradise with a shimmering melody and soulful grooves to skip along the shoreline before dark.
Having already received support from a plethora of influencers including BBC Radio One and 1XTRA, Shortlist, Clash Magazine, Hunger, Wonderland, Hypetrak and The Evening Standard, JP Cooper has firmly established himself as arguably the foremost new British talent. His forthcoming album is set to be one of the most anticipated albums of the year, and if it follows similar vibes to that of ‘September Song’, listeners are certainly in for a summer treat.
